A Dsus2 A Well, I worked all summer, couldn't save a cent, Dsus2 A I gave all my money to the government, Dsus2 A I don't know quite how it got spent, Dsus2 A But the banks a-comin' for my deed, E A Man at the mill can't see, boys, Dsus2 A Let me get my feed for free, boys, E A A Dsus2 A A A Dsus2 A A A Dsus2 A* Ain't that the way it is. A Dsus2 A Well, I cut out down a braver road, Dsus2 A I traded my stock for a V8 Ford, Dsus2 A Danced for town down on the floor boards, Dsus2 A And the title owed down to me, E A That gasoline ain't free, boys, Dsus2 A Just guzzling out my knee bone? E7 A A Dsus2 A A Dsus2 A A Dsus2 A* Ain't that the way it is. A Dsus2 A Dsus2 A A Dsus2 A Dsus2 A E A Dsus2 A E A A A A* A Dsus2 A Well, I met me a woman down in Saint Paul, Dsus2 A I even met her mother and I met her pal, Dsus2 A The brother told me that he'd bust my jaw, Dsus2 A I talked to his sister again, E A Told me I couldn't win though, Dsus2 A There's blood running down my chin now, E7 A A Dsus2 A A Dsus2 A A Dsus2 A* Ain't that the way it is. A Dsus2 A Well, I slept all night on the barroom floor, Dsus2 A And woke up this morning, my head was sore, Dsus2 A Pockets empty, but I want some more, Dsus2 A Now, the bar man's got my car, E A Tales worth more by far, boys, Dsus2 A As I leave her down at the bar now, E7 A A Dsus2 A A Dsus2 A A Dsus2 A* Ain't that the way it is. A Dsus2 A Dsus2 A A Dsus2 A Dsus2 A E A Dsus2 A E A A A A* A Dsus2 A Well, I hitched me a ride on the way back home, Dsus2 A I got me a job on a family farm, Dsus2 A Times are hard here, but I can't roll, Dsus2 A And I ain't got nothing more, E A And I owe that company store, boys, Dsus2 A Gold's looking good for sure, boys, E7 A A Dsus2 A A Dsus2 A A Dsus2 A* Ain't that the way it is.
